Set your creative spirit free with this multi-tasking sewing machine from Simplicity. With 7 built-in stitches: straight, zigzag, 3-step zigzag, buttonhole, blindhem, slant overlock, and stretch straight; and 25 stitch functions, which let you attach buttons, monogram, quilt, and much more, this sewing machine will keep you thinking up more projects than you’ll have time for. Nine presser feet are included, with a snap-on fit except where indicated: all-purpose, blind hem, buttonhole, button attaching, overcasting, gathering (screw-on), open toe satin stitch, adjustable zipper (screw on), and roller (screw-on).

The machine features a convenient carry handle, built-in sewing light, instant reverse lever, stitch dial, and all-metal casting and gears. In addition to the manual’s excellent how-to photographs and instructions (with a separate manual in Spanish), a 28-minute instructional video lets you see the machine in action. Simplicity covers the Deco Mate, which measures 14 by 6-1/2 by 12 inches, with a graduated warranty: one-year free parts and labor, two years on electrical defects, ten years on mechanical defects, and twenty-five years for casting replacement. To top it all off, a coupon is included for three free Simplicity patterns, so you can get right to work on that new outfit!--Ann Bieri

Great value for basic sewing, June 14, 2004

This machine doesn't have lots of fancy stitches but does just what is required for home decorating, & at a good price. It comes with an instructional video. My only complaint -why don't machines come wth a case anymore-it feels flimsy without.

I bought this machine when my mother's old Singer finally gave out, because it was all I could afford, but I've been absolutely delighted. It works every bit as good as the (much, even though it was purchased back in the 70s!) more expensive Singer it replaced and is much more user-friendly. It's quite portable and lighter than a lot of models for taking to sewing class. Highly recommend it. Would be a great gift for a new seamstress, such as a teen learning to sew

I taught myself how to sew with this sewing machine. The manual has simple instructions yet it's comprehensive and easy to understand. The demonstration video is extremely helpful especially for those who learn better by looking than by reading a manual. I think this sewing machine is superb value for money.
